Loving Lord, I am in the process of applying for a Visa and I ask You to be with me throughout this whole process. Help me Lord to be careful so that I complete the forms correctly, wisely and without any mistakes – and Lord give me the patience to wait Your perfect timing.

Lord You know that reason that I need to get this visa processed and I ask You to look favourably on my application. I pray that You will look graciously on me and as I prepare to go far from my homeland, my friends and family and I ask that You will give me the courage I need to step out into this new life, guide me as I make preparations for the task in hand.

Comfort my parents and family as I prepare to travel to work abroad and I pray that You will be very close to them, knowing that they will find it difficult to have me living so far from home – and I pray that in Your grace You will enable me, not only to keep in regular contact but will enable me to visit my family from time to time.

Thank You Lord for this opportunity and I pray that at the right time my visa will be granted – thank You Lord.
